The sparkling stories from the author of Five Children and It and many other classics: "Uncle James, or the Purple Stranger," "The Deliverers of Their Country," "The Ice Dragon, or Do as You are Told," "The Island Of the Nine Whirlpools," "The Dragon Tamers," "The Fiery Dragon, or the Heart of Stone and the Heart of Gold," and "Kind Little Edmund, or the Caves and the Cockatrice." These stories -- written in 1900 for The Strand magazine -- still charm and sparkle like pixie dust and dragon's gems for young and old alike more than a century later.
